Marcel Hirscher almost gets hit
A drone crash near four-time defending overall Letroy GuionJerseychampion Marcel Hirscher marred a World Cup slalom ski race that Henrik Kristoffersen of Norway won by a massive 1.25-second margin on Tuesday. The drone carrying a TV camera for the broadcast crew crashed to the snow during Hirscher's second run just behind the Austrian. While Hirscher may have been hit by some small pieces, he didn't appear to notice. "This is horrible,"http://www.packersshopnfl.com/WOMENS_YOUTH_MASON_CROSBY_JERSEY.html Hirscher, who finished second, said. "This can never happen again. This can be a serious injury." Still, Hirscher reclaimed the overall World Cup lead from Aksel Lund Svindal, who no longer races slalom. The Olympic bronze medalist, Kristoffersen earned his sixth World Cup victory. He also became the first man to win http://www.packersshopnfl.com/WOMENS_YOUTH_MICAH_HYDE_JERSEY.htmlthe opening two slaloms of the season since Austria's Reinfried Herbst six years ago. "Madonna is a real classic. So many greats have won here — (Alberto) Tomba, (Ingemar) Stenmark," Kristoffersen said. "To be here as a winner is unbelievable." Kristoffersen held a Brandin CooksJerseyone-second lead over Hirscher after the opening run, and added to it on his second trip down the steep Canalone Miramonti course. "I didn't expect it to be that much," Kristoffersen said. "I was really bumpy in the second run." He also edged Hirscher in Val d'Isere,http://www.saintsonlineofficialshop.com/WOMENS_YOUTH_BRANDON_BROWNER_JERSEY.html France, nine days ago. Marco Schwarz of Austria finished third, 1.59 seconds behind. Schwarz started with the No. 33 bib and got his first podium in only his third World Cup race.
